At first, I was intrigued by the idea of a game about the Chinese military, the People's Liberation Army. But now after spending a weekend with the Glorious Mission Online' s public release, the novelty has worn off.

Normally, playing video games at work in China is frowned upon. Unless you're working in the games industry or covering the games industry, gaming at work can lead to trouble. However, for one branch of China's military, video games are just a part of their daily training regimen.

Development of the People's Liberation Army video game, soon to be used to train China's armed forces, seems to be coming along nicely since last we heard about it.
